For insight into bearing capacity and stability
With the Dynamic Cone Penetration Test you can quickly investigate the bearing capacity and stability of the subsoil. This is essential in construction and infrastructure projects where certainty is needed about the foundation and soil structure. The test is easy to perform and gives immediate insight into possible weak or unstable layers.
Our approach to the Dynamic Cone Penetration Test
Our specialists perform impact soundings quickly and efficiently at your location. The method is practical and suitable for a variety of situations, even when working space is limited. We ensure smooth execution and clear measurement results, so you can get on with your project right away.
This means for you:
- You know whether the substrate has sufficient bearing capacity
- You identify unstable layers at an early stage
- You prevent risks during construction or infrastructure projects
- You support foundation choices with measurement data
- You work more efficiently and with more certainty
